Just Picked Pty Ltd is an owner operated business
located on the outskirts of Melbourne – being only
35 km from the GPO. Hans and Maria Hoffmann
established this
orchard and berry farm 16 years ago
based on the concept that
fruit, where ever
possible, be grown locally, picked at its optimum
stage of ripening and be available directly to the
public with minimal processing.

Now also situated on the property is a Juice Bar
where a delicious variety of smoothies and fresh
juices are available. Both morning and afternoon
teas are served and there is always a tempting
selection of seasonal fruit pies and tarts in the
deli. An extensive selection of home made preserves
and chutneys are available in store and this year
the produce range has been extended to include a
delectable range of liqueured fruits.

This company has continued to grow over the years as
it seems that many other people share is Hans and
Maria’s vision of simplifying the food chain and
minimizing our impact on the planet. It provides the
public with the opportunity to buy locally, eat
seasonally, and enjoy fully flavoured
fresh produce
which has been produced in an environmentally
responsible manner using Integrated Pest Management
strategies. The crops are usually picked and packed
daily and undergo no additional processing to
enhance shelf life or appearance.
